BREAKING: Jill Biden’s ex-husband charged with wife’s murder

Stevenson was taken into custody at the home on Monday. Officers responded to the home in late December for a domestic dispute call and found Linda Stevenson unresponsive on the living room floor. She was pronounced dead at the scene, per Fox 29.

In a press release, the New Castle County Police Department said that Stevenson was committed to the Howard Young Correctional Institute after failing to post a $500,000 bail. The arrest came after a grand jury returned an indictment for Stevenson on Monday. Police said it was the result of an "extensive weekslong investigation" into the woman’s death.

Per NBC News, Jill Biden, then Jill Tracy Jacobs, married Stevenson in February of 1979, when she was an 18-year-old University of Delaware student and he was 23. Stevenson went on to open The Stone Ballroom Club, a popular college bar near the school, where performers such as Bruce Springsteen and Dave Matthews played. They divorced in May of 1975, just months after Jill Biden met Joe Biden.
